Noninvasive body contouring offers a way to achieve a slimmer, more sculpted look without surgery or downtime. While most treatments target either fat reduction or muscle toning, one innovative option does both—thanks to its unique combination of technologies.

This advanced treatment uses radiofrequency (RF) and high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to simultaneously burn fat and build muscle. The result? A faster, more effective approach to body sculpting with no recovery time.

In just minutes, we can slim, tone, and sculpt up to 10 areas of the body safely and comfortably. Discover the power of this breakthrough technology at Aestheticare STL in St. Louis, MO—and redefine your silhouette with ease and confidence.

What Is EMSCULPT NEO?

Change In fact, Emsculpt Neo instead of just Emsculpt In fact, EMSCULPT is the first and only device where a single applicator can deliver different energies to simultaneously burn fat and build muscle in the arms, belly area, buttocks, thighs, and calves.

How It Works

The device emits synchronized RF and HIFEM energies through an applicator placed on the target area:
RF heats and destroys fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.

HIFEM stimulates deep muscle contractions, leading to growth and increased strength.

This technology triggers muscle engagement at a level far beyond standard workouts—equivalent to performing over 20,000 crunches in a 30-minute session—while also permanently reducing fat. The result is a more defined, firmer physique in less time.

How It Compares to Other Treatments

Unlike body contouring options such as CoolSculpting or SculpSure, this treatment goes beyond fat reduction. By combining radiofrequency with high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy, it simultaneously targets fat and builds muscle in a single session—offering a more complete and efficient sculpting solution.

What It Treats

This non-invasive approach is designed to:

-Reduce stubborn fat
-Enhance muscle tone and definition
-Tighten the skin
-Improve rectus diastasis (abdominal separation post-pregnancy)

It’s effective for multiple areas, including the abdomen, buttocks, thighs (inner, outer, front, back), biceps, triceps, and calves—helping patients achieve a firmer, more sculpted physique.

Session

The EMSCULPT NEO session begins with you lying down as the device is positioned over the targeted area. Once activated, it emits radiofrequency and HIFEM energy, producing a gentle warming sensation alongside intense muscle contractions. Although vigorous, it feels more like a robust workout than pain.

Post-Treatment

After undergoing an EMSCULPT NEO treatment, you won’t need any downtime and can immediately resume all activities, including exercise. You might feel muscle soreness like you’d experience after a workout, but this shouldn’t disrupt your daily routine.

The Treatment Process

This 30-minute, in-office procedure is typically done once a week for four to six weeks. During the session, applicators are secured to the treatment area as you lie back and relax. The device is then activated to begin the process. While painless, many patients describe it as feeling like a hot stone massage or an intense workout.

Post-Treatment Recovery

There’s no downtime involved—most patients return to daily activities immediately. Temporary redness, swelling, or numbness may occur and typically resolve within a few days. These effects are similar to what you’d expect after a vigorous gym session.
Swelling can also result from the body’s natural response to eliminating destroyed fat cells.

Expected Results

Some changes may be noticeable after just one session, but full results—up to 30% fat reduction and 25% muscle gain—usually appear within a few weeks of completing the series. Patients often notice firmer, more defined areas, such as a flatter abdomen or more toned thighs.
Muscle definition can last three to six months, and fat reduction is long-lasting when supported by a healthy lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Am I a good candidate for EMSCULPT NEO?

If you have a body mass index BMI 30 or less and are willing to continue following a healthy lifestyle post-treatment.

How do I prepare for my EMSCULPT NEO treatment?

No preparation is required for this treatment aside from removing all metal jewelry and accessories before treatment. You will just need to come to your scheduled appointment and plan to have up to six appointments once a week. It’s also a good idea to hydrate well and to wear comfortable and loose-fitting clothing for your treatment.

Will I lose weight with EMSCULPT NEO?

While EMSCULPT NEO removes some fat in targeted areas permanently, it has minimal impact on weight. Body sculpting treatments are not a replacement for diet and exercise. Instead, their goal is to reshape certain areas of the body.

Are there any side effects with EMSCULPT NEO?

There are no reported side effects with EMSCULPT NEO aside from temporary muscle soreness and minor swelling. These usually resolve on their own within a couple of days.

How long will my EMSCULPT NEO results last?

Your results should last for three to six months following your last treatment. To maintain your EMSCULPT NEO results, we suggest getting regular treatments once or twice a year. Following a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen can also lead to long-lasting results.

How soon can I see results after EMSCULPT NEO?

You can expect immediate results after your EMSCULPT NEO treatment, with further improvements continuing over the next 4 to 8 weeks. To maintain these results, follow a healthy diet and regular exercise routine. 

Can EMSCULPT NEO be combined with other body contouring treatments?

EMSCULPT NEO can be combined with other treatments like CoolSculpting Elite and Venus Legacy. CoolSculpting Elite uses cryolipolysis technology to freeze and eliminate fat cells permanently. This technique targets fat with cold temperatures while preserving surrounding tissues. Venus Legacy utilizes multi-polar radio frequencies and magnetic pulses to improve skin laxity by generating new collagen. The RF technology is comfortable, requires no recovery time, and is suitable for all skin types. 

Are there any restrictions after an EMSCULPT NEO session?

After your EMSCULPT NEO treatment, you should follow a few guidelines for optimal results and recovery. Avoid saunas, and hot tubs, and expose the treated area to excessive heat for at least 24 hours. Additionally, refrain from strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for 24-48 hours to allow your muscles to recover from the intense contractions induced by the treatment. Staying well-hydrated before and after the procedure also aids in muscle recovery. 

What areas of the body can be treated with EMSCULPT NEO?

EMSCULPT NEO employs advanced technology to eliminate stubborn fat and tone muscles. This innovative treatment can be applied to multiple areas, including the buttocks, abdomen, thighs, calves, and arms, helping you achieve a leaner and more sculpted physique. 

How long does each EMSCULPT NEO session take?

Each session lasts approximately 30 minutes.
